he came out (of jail).

He's the smartest car thief in Palermo.

Why did he stop?

Family guess but it won't last.

I'm looking for Cicco Capuana's fish

warehouse. You know it?

It's there.

It's been shut all week.

They must have left a refrigerator open

because

we've had complaints about the smell.

- See you around.

- Goodbye.

OK, let's go add these up.

Did you find out why they murdered

Patranka?

He was on trial.

What are you doing round here, eh?

Saw that man!

Which man?

That...

that one who wants to murder you.

But nobody wants to murder me!

Where did you see him?

At.. at the barbers.

I'll follow him.

Forget following him and run

back to school. Go! Go!

Nino. There were four bullets.

Two for Patranka, two for Schirro,

what a perfect job, eh?!

Perfection?

You bet!

What's wrong?

- Just keep your mind on doing a good

job with the cleaning. - Peralta!

Go inside.

What is it?

Headquarters, this is Unit Two.

Yes, yes, the Sergeant wants you. Go on!

Headquarters. Who's that?

Yeah, we need a lab team down here..

This Capuana, did you

know him personally?

Well, just as a customer.

How is your stomach?

Wish the smell was outside.

It's not a pretty sight either.

Christ!

Why are you showing me this Sergeant!?

They pulled out his fingernails.

They're not pleasant people.

Who is it? Capuana?

No, it's not him.

Then who is it?

Don't know.

Perhaps a watchman?

Don't know!

Want to show you another

interesting thing.

This...

.. it's a prison to

hold a kidnapped man...

...or a kidnapped woman?

- Madam, please!

- Over here!

No photographs! No photographs!

This way sir. (lawyer)

Look, cover it up quickly!

Madam... Sir.

Let's do this quickly,

please keep it short.

Do you recognise the place?

Let me through! Sergeant!

So, they didn't just let her go then?

One of them must have sold out,

the other guys must have freed her.

Others?

But she'll swear they released her by

themselves.

Because the others, they

were sent by her husband?

Uh-uh, didn't say that.

He was tortured! They pulled out his

fingernails!

They wanted him to talk!

Already told you to get rid of those

photographers!

That's enough! No more photographs!

Goodbye sir.

Good day.

This affair is going

to start a rebellion.

This is all you buy for

the money you get?

Found it.

You should be in school.

But learn where that man is,

at a hotel, at Ballero.

What's the name?

It's called... Piacere Cortese.

Go back home and don't tell your mum.

And we'll have to talk about

this again some time.

The guy was tortured to death.

The sergeant asked me if

knew who he was, said no.

Told you Nino,

you should have kept away from Capuana!
